Sunset Concert Series

Enjoy an evening under the stars at our annual Sunset Concert Series.  Bring a blanket or chair to relax under the fall sky.  Our professional musicians offer a variety of music genres.  Light refreshments will be available or you may bring your own (no alcohol, pets or glass allowed).  Grapevine Botanical Garden docents will also be available to answer gardening questions and children's gardening activities will also be available at the Ed & Edith Pewitt Educational Pavilion each evening during the concert series.  This year's line up will include both previous crowd favorites and new artists.

Ricki Derek (Jazz/Swing/Crooner)

Ricki Derek is a performer in the Dallas area known for his magical voice and his ability to entertain like the greats of yesterday.  To label him a lounge singer would not be far from true, but an understatement nonetheless.  To hear him sing, you would think "Old Blue Eyes" was right there crooning.  Always dressed for the occasion, Ricki makes you feel like you've got a front row ticket to an old school show on the strip.  Ricki just looks like he's having a good time.  His interaction with the audience and his band make each show exciting and different.  There's that old school attention to detail that makes a Ricki Derek Show, just that, a terrific show that blends the classic standards with a twist of old school style on the newer hits.  Ricki Derek is as smooth as it gets.
